Design idea

Mental and physical well-being and health are the focus when using the facility. As important as regular medical examinations, treatments and preventive measures are, relaxation and recreation should also be important and accessible for everyone. The personal wellness unit (Personal WellZone) is booked online or on site and used for one to several hours alone or in pairs. There, users can enjoy their own sauna, whirlpool and relaxation area in a pleasant atmosphere. A selection of drinks and snacks can be booked. Each wellness unit is cleaned after or before each guest. The best possible hygiene should be guaranteed by documenting and monitoring the cleaning processes.
